Problem Statement
Hi,
I have a use case where all of the auth is handled by a gateway, and access to the gateway is controlled using netpols. Problem is, Claude-code keeps looking for an auth token in the env. Is there a way to skip this check? I've tried setting:ANTHROPIC_BEDROCK_BASE_URL=https://my-gateway/bedrockCLAUDE_CODE_SKIP_BEDROCK_AUTH=1CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK=1
but still getting a 403 from claude-code.
Proposed Solution
Introduce an env var that will skip any auth token checks locally. Something like CLAUDE_CODE_USE_GATEWAY_AUTH.
